Ambient dialogue[edit]
- Exile: Why, why, why? That’s all I ask... Why?
- Exile: Why, oh why did I displease Joko? This place is a fate worse than death.
- Exile: Joko, I'm sorry. I meant no disrespect. It was a dare. I'd had a little too much wine... I was just trying to impress a girl.
- Exile (1): Poor guy. It's a nightmare being cast out here after a lifetime living inside the wall.
- Exile (2): He'll learn to accept it. Or the Awakened will tire of the noise and put him out of his misery.
- Exile (1): And drag him right into theirs.
- Exile (1): Is it possible you did something to offend Joko without realizing it, and that’s why we’re here?
- Exile (2): Maybe you did something to offend Joko and that’s why we’re here.
- Exile (1): Wasn’t me.
- Exile (2): Wasn’t me either.
- Exile (1): How long do you think it’ll be before he makes a break for the wall?
- Exile (2): Quiet! Don’t give him any ideas.
- Exile (1): You wouldn’t know because you were born here, but people who aren't...we get that idea the moment we arrive.
- Exile (1): Have you noticed how the tax collections have been so...erratic lately? One day the quota’s up, then down, then up...
- Exile (2): And they're not showing up on regular schedules like before.
- Exile (1): Oh, no. You don’t think something's going wrong behind the wall, do you?
- Exile (2): I hope to the gods my family are safe in there.
- Wazzir: We don't see many like you, heading south through the Arid Gladefields. Want to know why?
- In and around Palawa's Grace
- Field Foreman Erran: Anyone new commit to making the next trip north?
- Emara: It’s a big decision. They want to be sure they’re making the right one.
- Field Foreman Erran: But don’t they realize Joko only sent them here to slowly work them to death?
- Emara: They know. They’ve seen friends and loved ones die.
- Field Foreman Erran: Then what are they waiting for?
- Emara: Erran, what are we waiting for? When can we leave?
- Field Foreman Erran: I just can’t leave this many people behind.
- Field Foreman Erran: But soon... I promise I will not let you die here.
- Field Foreman Erran: Always keep your work buddy in sight. His life may depend on your quick assistance.
- Field Foreman Erran: Are the people making preparations for the next departure north?
- Emara: At the moment, they're more worried about meeting Warden Jabari's quota.
- Field Foreman Erran: "Warden" Jabari. The Sunspear Jabari that I knew was a great man. A hero. Until Joko killed him and made this... creature.
- Emara: At least we have Second Spear Olishar helping us now.
- Field Foreman Erran: Olishar uphold the finest traditions of the Sunspears. If only more like him remained alive and uncorrupted by Joko.
- Emara: But there aren't. The Sunspears we knew are gone. Which is why we must save ourselves.
- Field Foreman Erran: And we will, I swear it. All the poor wretches who were sent here to die...
- Field Foreman Erran: ...Will find peace again in the streets of Amnoon.
- Emara: I should ask around to make sure everyone's okay.
- Field Foreman Erran: Emara, what's the mood around camp?
- Emara: People are nervous. A little scared. Worried about their quotas.
- Field Foreman Erran: Then it's more important than ever we convince them to join the exodus north.
- Emara: I'm sure they will. But the unknown is scary.
- Field Foreman Erran: Scarier than this?
- Emara: They'll leave when they feel the time is right. You'll see.
- Field Foreman Erran: What would these people do without you to keep their spirits up?
- Emara: Or you to look out for their safety?
- Exile (1): So, how's Cynnda doing?
- Exile (2): Well, it's been a year since the Awakened dragged her parents off to the Bastion and left her crying on the street...
- Exile (1): I know. You were so brave to take that poor child in and raise her as your own.
- Exile (2): And last night, for the first time she slept through the night without waking and crying even once, but... Oh, dear...
- Exile (1): No, that's good. That's a good sign, so why do you seem so upset?
- Exile (2): It's just that, she was in my arms when those Awakened tax collectors came yesterday and... No, I must have imagined it...
- Exile (1): Why, what happened?
- Exile (2): I could have sworn she looked one of those horrible things in the eyes and cooed, "Mama."
- Exile (1): I don't know what I'll do now that he's gone.
- Exile (2): First thing you must do is grant him his dying wish- that you escape this horror by heading north with us.
- Exile (1): But our dream was a life in Amnoon together. Without him, there's nothing for me there.
- Exile (1): He’s gone. I don’t think I can keep going after what they did to him.
- Exile (2): You have to. You want vengeance? You won’t find it in death.
- Exile (1): It's harder to meet quotas with so many inexperienced exiles coming from the south and skilled harvesters defecting north.
- Exile (2): It doesn't help that Joko's people keep raising our harvest quotas and then taking more of our people when we fall short.
- Exile (1): I'm worried they're less concerned about our quotas, and more concerned about their own quotas to Awaken new corpses.
- Among the ruins between Palawa's Grace and Assistant Foreman Kofi's town, which is nameless
- Exile (1): This is unacceptable. Our exile was clearly a mistake.
- Exile (2): We just need to find whoever’s in charge and explain.
- Exile (1): Of course, we’ll need to have our clothes and belongings returned.
- Exile (2): But if one more person tries to hand me a shovel or a rake, I swear I’m going to lose it.
- Exile (1): Try to relax. I’m sure we’ll be back home in no time.
- Exile (1): So, what do you think they’re doing on the other side of the wall right now?
- Exile (2): I think they’re probably feasting on sweet ambrosia, drinking fine Elonian wine, and wooing beautiful women.
- Exile (1): I think they’re all missing me. Talking about how much they’re missing me. About how everything’s worse since I got taken away.
- Exile (2): Oh yeah? Well, I think they’re feasting on YOUR sweet ambrosia, drinking YOUR fine wine, and wooing YOUR beautiful wife.
- Exile (1): Ha! For your information, I didn’t have any ambrosia, wine, OR a wife.
- Exile (2): In that case, I doubt anyone’s really missing you all that much.
- Exile (1): Starting tomorrow, I’m going to find myself a new work buddy.
- Exile (1): I sometimes wonder about giving aid to those who flee north. What if losing those supplies makes us miss our quota?
- Exile (2): I've had concerns too. But if we abandon them, we abandon hope. And these days even the smallest hope is worth any risk.
- Exile (1): If you don’t mind my asking, what did you do to get exiled outside the wall?
- Exile (2): Mordant Crescent caught me praying to Kormir. They said only the most supreme Palawa Joko was worthy of my worship.
- Exile (1): How awful! What did you do?
- Exile (2): I just kept on praying while they stood there. Asking Kormir to deliver Elona from the curse of Palawa Joko.
- Exile (1): I admire your courage–standing up for your beliefs.
- Exile (2): Yes. But every day I’m left here to rot, I worry that placing my faith in the gods was a mistake.
- Exile (1) I'm always amazed at how freely the kids here play.
- Exile (2) Just running and laughing. Not a care in the world.
- Exile (1) What do you think it's like for those born out here? Never knowing what life is like inside the wall. What they're missing.
- Exile (2) I think it would be bliss.
- Exile (1): Seems to me we have two choices.
- Exile (1): It's nice to have choices. What are they?
- Exile (1): Stay here and let the sun, scarabs, and Awakened kill us, or head north and let the sun, sand eels, and Mordant Crescent kill us.
- Exile (1): If those are the only choices, I vote we stay right here.
- Exile (1): If we die either way, why not head north and at least try?
- Exile (1): You've obviously never been bitten by a sand eel.
- Near Assistant Foreman Kofi's town, which is nameless
- Exile: Why are the plants and bugs so mean?
- Exile: What’s wrong with this place? Back home, the Awakened were our friends.
- Exile: I hate it here! I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.
- Exile (1): So how’s your little one coping with the field work this season?
- Exile (2): Really well. Not surprising for a kid whose first word was "quota." And yours?
- Exile (1): She started out fine. Then my husband gave her a baby vulture for a pet. She named it "Viscerina."'
- Exile (2): How cute is that?
- Exile (1): Until a scarab snatched her pet and flew off. Now all she wants to do is chase scarabs around with a stick all day.
- Exile (1): Hey, you’re one of the new exiles, right? From south of the wall?
- Exile (2): Just leave me alone. I hate it here.
- Exile (1): It’s not too horrible. You’ll get used to it... probably.
- Exile (2): Easy for you–you were born here. The Mordant Crescent forced my family to come here. I want to go home.
- Exile (3): Ha! Good luck. Only way to go back through that wall is to croak and get yourself Awakened.
- Exile (1): Just playing and laughing. Not a care in the world.
- Exile (2): What do you think it's like for those born out here? Never knowing what life is like inside the wall. What they're missing.
- Exile (1): I think it would be bliss.
- Exile (1): I've been thinking... Whenever Joko's Awakened freaks come to check on the quotas, we outnumber them two to one, right?
- Exile (2): Please just let me enjoy my shade time in peace.
- Exile (1): They're not expecting any trouble. They're expecting us to grovel and hand over our hard-earned harvest.
- Exile (2): Shade time.
- Exile (1): We tend the fields eighteen hours a day. We're solid muscle. They're nothing but rot and decay.
- Exile (2): Was that a wisp of a breeze? Did you feel that?
- Exile (1): They're just corpses who don't know how to play dead. Well, let's teach them how. I say we attack them. Now.
- Exile (2): And I say that if we attack them today, then we are them tomorrow.
- Exile (1): Shade?
- Exile (1): I'm ready to give up. Just let Joko's tax collectors or the insects or the sun kill me, and be done with it.
- Exile (2): Not me. I'm going to live forever.
- Exile (1): What's your secret for not giving up?
- Exile (2): I'm stubborn. I just decided there's no way I'm ever giving Joko the satisfaction of taking my corpse.
- Exile (1): When you put it that way, I guess I can hang on a little longer.
- Exile (1): Olishar says he can get us out of here to safety. Do you believe him?
- Exile (2): I know plenty have tried. Maybe they got away. Maybe they got Awakened.
- Exile (1): Do you think it's worth the risk?
- Exile (2): I wouldn't still be here if I did.
- Exile (1): More and more people have been risking escape lately. Perhaps Olishar is telling the truth.
- Exile (2): Or perhaps Olishar has cast his lot with Joko and is merely providing him with more corpses.
- Exile (1): But then, what is life without risk?
- Exile (2): Not death.
- Awakened Caster: Yeah, I couldn't pay my taxes once. Got me killed. On the plus side, that led to this great job.
- Awakened Caster: Joko sent me.
- Awakened Caster: You live by Joko's grace. You can die by his whim.
- While completing the Help Assistant Foreman Kofi keep the people of the Gladefields safe renown heart
- Desperate Exile (1): If the Awakened show now, I'm doomed. I need more goods.
- Desperate Exile (1): This harvest was just not enough... I need more goods.
- Desperate Exile (1): What am I going to do? There's just not enough here.
- Desperate Exile (2): Oh no. This isn't nearly enough.
- Desperate Exile (2): I need a plan. We need more supplies.
- Desperate Exile (2): What am I going to do? There's just not enough here.
- Near Olishar's Oasis Camp
- Makeen: Hey, can you talk?
- Priory Explorer Hozza: Of course I can talk. I’m an asura, which means I speak better than you ever will.
- Makeen: Oh.
- Makeen: So do all azurums look like you?
- Makeen: Are you all so puny?
- Makeen: Are your ears supposed to stick out like that?
- Makeen: You look kinda like a skritt with its face smashed in.
- Makeen: I bet you’d make a good pet.
- Makeen: Can you do any tricks?
- Priory Explorer Hozza: (sigh) Where's a progeny discipline golem when you need one?
- Near the Bounty Board
- Order of Shadows Agent: A new bounty is up. Do you have what it takes?
- Order of Shadows Agent: Wicked, ley-enhanced creatures are roaming the desert. What are you going to do about it?
- Order of Shadows Agent: Show some guts. Put your name down for the contract on the Awakened stray.
- Order of Shadows Agent: We've got a pest problem. A scarab's gotten mixed up with ley magic. Swat him down.
- Order of Shadows Agent: Our latest contract is for a crazed jacaranda. Serious bounty hunters only.
- Order of Shadows Agent: Matriarch Talonslayer is rampaging across the mesas. Who's up for some harpy hunting?
- Order of Shadows Agent: A ley-deranged skritt is spreading pain and fear? What's the world coming to?
- Order of Shadows Agent: This bounty is a big one! Help take down this legendary hydra. Your friends will be impressed.
- Order of Shadows Agent: There aren't any contracts available right now. Try back later.
